Chapter Fourteen Darkness Comes

"Height, twenty-four, five, two percent difference, fourteenth humidity, forty-five degrees, well, three hundred and forty-seven ores, sixty-three, curvature..." Once the calculation started, Saf seemed to have become a different person, and there was no one else in his eyes, only a row of numbers left.

I was muttering, but the pen in my hand was never stopped. Everyone present recognized the numbers, but no one could understand the numbers and formulas that were increasing on the paper.

"Spatial stability, ninety-five, fluctuation frequency thirty-six, barrier intensity 10-4 Ogal." Every time a number is read, the formula on the paper will be lengthened by a length. No matter how the calculation process is, the formula alone is already densely packed with three sheets of paper.

"Seventy-six, the answer is seventy-six." The tip of the pen paused heavily on the paper, and Saff suddenly raised his head, "I calculated it, it really is, ah..."

The female swordsman finally found everyone around her, screaming in despair, and hid back behind Shuer as soon as possible.

"Don't be afraid, you are a successful person at this time. You must stand up and accept the admiration of others." Shur grabbed Sav's hand, regardless of the weak struggle of the female swordsman, and pulled her and stood side by side with him. "Don't be timid, this is what you deserve."

The temperature from the palm of his hand made Safu's messy heart gradually calm down. Some people held their own hands and some faced them with him. For a moment, those terrifying gazes seemed not so terrible. Safu took a deep breath, tried to raise his head, and faced the eyes of the eight people around him who had their own thoughts.

Woo, it was still very scary. Saff quickly lowered his head, and the female swordsman's first attempt ended in failure. However, she did not even notice it herself. Although she lowered her head, she did not try to hide behind Shuer this time, but stood shyly in the focus of her eyes, um, with Shuer.

"The knot, the result proves that there is indeed an alien projection nearby."

"Nearby?" Mia frowned and asked, "How far is it from here?"

"Some concepts in space cannot be measured by distance, but can only be said to be nearby."

"I didn't understand at all." Mia is a magician and a shadow-seeker who is unknown to outsiders. She couldn't even understand what Sapphire said, let alone others.

"Let me explain this. The space formed by projection in another world is very close to the world where our Pavadiga is located, and it basically overlaps, so it cannot be expressed by distance. However, although it overlaps, the projection door is not opened and the two worlds are not connected."

"I understand." Mia nodded expressionlessly, "Is it possible to open it?"

"Now it seems that there is no such thing as normal. Two worlds will pass by each other, but they will never be able to communicate with each other. However, if there is a large-scale energy fluctuation, it is not necessarily the case."

"How big is the size of energy fluctuations? How does the channel generate? If you fight with the spider inside, will the aftermath cause the channel to open?" Mia already understood what Shuer was worried about,

"From the calculation results, in terms of the strength of nearby space barriers, at least the fluctuations generated by the burst of energy at level seven can affect the stability of the space and thus open the connection." Saf said with certainty, "As for the way the entrance is generated, no one can give a definite answer. However, in theory, it should be the instantaneous expansion of the surface with points, and then quickly shrink after reaching the limit, and finally stabilize at a different size."

"Level 7?" Mia rolled her eyes in her heart. The level 7 energy explosion was equivalent to a medium-sized volcanic eruption. It was stronger than the full-strength attack of the demigod mage. It was enough to destroy a large city. Even if ten legendary mutant spiders gathered together, they would probably not be able to cause such a large energy explosion intensity. It seems that there is no need to worry that the battle with the enemy would start projecting the alien world, and then be swallowed by the projecting the alien world without any preparation.

"I have never entered a projection in another world, nor have I seen a level seven energy explosion. The conclusion just now is just a theory, and the special case cannot be ruled out." Saf said honestly, "And the time given to me is too short, and I am very worried that the result will go wrong. Of course, I don't think it will not."

"That's okay." After hesitating for a while, Mia decided to believe Suff. After all, a projector's judgment is very important. "Shul, what else do you have?"

"Not for the time being." No one was dissatisfied with Shuer's slightest problem, but instead recognized his behavior. Although it seemed like a waste of time, the calculation results proved that he was right. The only mistake was that he misjudged the intensity of the energy explosion, so he was so nervous for a while. But this was better than preparing for the matter at the end. Therefore, the straightforward orc even secretly gave Shuer a thumbs up and thanked him for his judgment.

"Very good, Militi, your situation."

"It's not good. The spiders are not awake yet, but their movements are getting bigger and bigger." Militi said with a frown. "I guess it's on the verge of waking up. A little bit of stimulation may induce war."

"It doesn't matter, it must not know. We are here to induce war." Mia waved her hand, without any timidity, "Go in."

Dark is in front and Shuer is in the back, and the other eight people are divided into three groups in the center. This is the most reliable exploration of formation in dangerous environments and the highest evaluation of Shuer's combat ability. Rest assured that he will cut the back as the only healer, which represents everyone's affirmation of his strength. Otherwise, it will not only put the healer in danger, but also irresponsible to the entire team.

As soon as we entered the Magic Tower, we saw a few broken bones on the ground, which were placed inconspicuously along the corner of the wall and extending deep into the Magic Tower. Facing everyone's inquiring gaze, Militi just shook her long hair proudly and didn't say a word, but there was no doubt that this was the mark that Shuer asked. Following the broken bones, you can directly find the target of energy-type mutation.

Walking carefully inside the magic tower, you can see that this is a very traditional magic tower, a standard magic tower layout common in the pioneering era. Within the thick exterior wall is a circular corridor, with the corridor next to the exterior wall. Standing on the corridor, you can see the scene outside the tower through the small windows of the exterior wall.

On the inside of the corridor, the circular space is divided into several parts by several fan-shaped rooms. The door opens in the corridor. Walk around the corridor and you can reach every room on this floor.

Unlike today's magic towers, which are built like mazes, this is the simplest and efficient layout. After all, for pioneers, time is always precious, and every minute is not enough. Of course, you have to choose the most efficient mode. It is conceivable that when the magic tower was just established thousands of years ago, several mages in the pioneer team were running around the corridor every day, holding half of the beakers and test tubes in their hands. They had to spend all their time in magic operations to meet the needs of the city.

Unfortunately, the scene from the magic tower is no longer visible. There is only an empty corridor left here, and a large amount of loess is still piled up on the ground of the corridor. Although the loess blocking the road has been removed after cleaning, some of them are still in the way.

This does not affect the mercenaries' footsteps. For them, obstacles are just small problems that can be solved by waving their hands. The real big problem is still the goal of entrenching in the energy pool.

As a magic tower that absorbs energy from the earth's energy and uses it, the energy pool must of course be built at the bottom, that is, the part deep into the ground. No one will build the energy pool in the sky, which is simply disgusting that they are not dying fast enough and sending the enemy the most conspicuous target, and only the ground is the best shield.

In the eyes of the pioneers, any energy is extremely precious, so the magic tower has no transmission equipment at all. The magic tower, which is more than 50 meters above and below the ground, is completely connected by the physical connection of the ladder. I believe that even the most noble owner of the magic tower can only rely on two legs to get up and down.

The mercenaries are no exception.

Carefully follow the stone steps slowly down, and the group lined up in a row and walked in the middle of the stairs. The seventh Rule of Relic Adventure Code: Never move closely to the wall. There is a place where traps love the most. Every hour, explorers die in traps because they lose their dodge distance when they are close to the wall. Cherish their lives and stay away from the walls.

Experienced mercenaries will not make such mistakes, and walking in the middle is the safest choice. As they go deeper and deeper, the light coming through the small window has disappeared, and the magic tower is getting darker and darker.

However, there is no need to light the light. The light of energy that is bright and extinguished penetrates upward from the deepest part of the underground, allowing the mercenaries to see everything clearly. But this is not known whether it is the residual energy from the magic pool or the light from the body of the mutant spider. The color is cold and pale, making everything around it full of gloomy and terrifying aura.

When the light flickers, the switching between black and white becomes more strange. Whenever darkness comes, someone is worried that the next time the light light will light up, something weird and terrifying monster will appear in front of you.

Bright, dark, light, dark, Mia, who led the team checked from time to time, fearing that when the surroundings light up again, she suddenly found that one or two people were missing in the team.

Well, maybe one more person.

Fortunately, the plot in the inferior horror story did not appear, the stairs were close to the bottom, and you could even see the last layer of circular corridor.

As we gradually approached, an unpleasant smell drifted into everyone's nose. It was not a stinky smell, nor a fishy smell, but a kind of difficult to describe, with a slight stinky and dirty smell, which was not strong, but it was never gone.

The appearance of turbid air makes everyone's muscles tense, and veterans who are familiar with adventure can tell it. This smell is the unique breath of reptiles who have lived underground for a long time. The more quantity or size, the more obvious the breath is.

Keeping silent, Mia made several gestures, and the people she pointed at responded with thumbs up, exchanged positions, followed Dak's back and stepped onto the last ring corridor first. Behind them, the bow was already full, the magic weapon was full of energy, the magic guide had been silently recited, and the entire team was ready to go.
